I do miss the nuances that led up to him being like this for sure. It very much is giving cartoon. Though to be fair, this writers have Tracy being one note sometimes and JE still elevates their writing. There is more to Tracy than grumpy grandma.

Awww Nina and Drew...the way they were under PM was truly perfection. And glad I called that. I think the closest now to organically paired similarly is Dani/Andre on BTG. Well if Michael ever falls out with Sonny again, you know Rory will bring it. :) VERY. I've been picking on it since I started regularly watching again. I give these writers credit that their second year is better than their first, but they still have annoying writing tics that I don't like. And you can tell which HW likes which story, too, which makes it worse when it's a potential good story and one likes it and the other one tries to wreck it.

Lol. But very. I didn't want him to lose his edge, but I wanted something, anything. It's almost like the writers were toying with the audience cuz they knew what they were doing was leading to a murder mystery and they got offended the audience were that savvy so...NOPE.

I know! I'm not at all liking the tonic shift story-wise, but I can't deny it is holding my interest in spite of it. Of course that could be cuz Laura is centered. And now I'm getting Marco/Lucas. Ooooo I heard about those.

12-19 Second generation vs Generation Next on the runway? I'm down. I'm assuming Thomas (finally) coming back and pushing Deke right off the stage is to set up for him to join Katie's new fashion house. So no wonder Brad Bell has been making such a concentrated effort to balance stories between the Spencers and the Forresters. I like!!! Especially if we get a runway showdown.

Or her him! Willow still got that crazy in her. ;) Seriously, I can't believe they not only took Drew's one redeeming quality aka Scout away and not even being shot has changed him. Shoot him again! Thank you. I think it says something that I am actually disappointed when I can't get around to my player quick enough and miss episodes of GH...where you actually can miss a day AND miss a lot VS B&B or Y&R where they have timed amount of time before the player deletes them and that's when it's not set to delete early and that happens and I feel NOTHING.

12-17 A lot better but I still feel meh about it. At least there is some movement starting to go on. I'm sorry. I love that Nicole's story is getting traction. We all know that Kial is there for her, but why can't she have a little bit of fun first? And did we think Carlton was going to give up without some fight? It was adorable all the same. Or I was just distracted by the bubble. ;) There's no way that I feel Naomi would help Silk Press Sheila out so my eyes immediately rolled my eyes. And just silliness with her treating Samantha like dirt. Though I liked June not even wanting to deal with her. That said...nicely warming to Shanice and Ted. I hate to admit it, but he did have a point. And...that is something that I would do for someone I like. runs for cover Speaking of Ted...I did enjoy his scene with Eva as well. I even liked that Eva talked some sense into Izaiah now do the same for Mama and got him to try to mend fences with his dad. And the end was a nice cliffhanger. Cuz I like Marcel with SilkPress so good to play that beat.

BTG: Season 2 promo
Same. It's funny that I've seen B&B promos over the last week, but we get the same ole same ole for BTG. I think not!

gasps Did I just hear you say that? jk. Their pairing (before someone named Frank derailed it) was good. But...yes. Jason has grown and Britt has regressed. Given who wants her around, I can only assume that part of the story is intentional. But you know I said before she 'died'...and I know I'm in the minority...but Britt had growth. Definitely more growth than what is currently on display. I wouldn't have mind a Trina/Gio/Emma triangle when Emma first got back. Now...I think it would do damage to Trina than anyone. YESSS!!!! And everyone of them had chemistry with each other. EVERY...ONE!!! Just sitting on a goldmine, but Frank can't have that. Wacka wacka!!! Given how often Home and Hearth pops up, I believe it, too. Exactly!!! Ava is at her best when she has her claws out. Speak on it with that sustained animosity. At least we got it with Drew and I don't see that changing.

Now some people are just completists and just like to watch their shows in order. And say what you want about the current soaps, but at least GH...wacka wacka and all...is surprisingly bingeable in spite of its flaws. I've been saying that a lot lately and yes, I am shocked that I'm saying that. Mind you, I now tune into Y&R for events that interests me or a Jess Walton/Eileen Davidson appearance, but it's better than not watching at all which is what I do now. Sorry, Josh Morrow.

The Madonna Thread
Secret is one of my favorites as well. Ooooh the airplay/video play it got. It was sooooo popular. And I was so excited when the soap PORT CHARLES used it for one of their arcs in promos. Chills!!!! And I love the remix by Junior Vasquez with video with the Sandra Bernhard cameo. Bedtime Story. I Rather Be Your Lover just has that vibe from that time that I love it. Human Nature of course. But I like the slow chill vibe/build trilogy of Love Tried To Welcome Me/Santuary/Bedtime Story. Hehe. I will watch that later. Getting ready for work.

I agree with others. And I am/was a Britt fan, but I have not seen a course correction either. It is truly like she is in some skit we can't get out of. I know you are not (unlike me), but even from an organic standpoint, you said it. Even PM saw that so it was teased out beautifully. And clearly these writers see that given the very first scene of Monica's funeral was Jason and Liz. It really speaks for itself. But as also said above, they would rather tank the show than let it happen. And that goes back to my fury at Liz being single at the same time as her main love interests (Jason, Ric, and Lucky) all on canvas at the same time and the writers really did NOTHING with that goldmine of story. I also agree that Burton has definitely been trying. They are just wasting him. PS. I love that idea for the teens.

You mean wanting him dead. ;P Before the happy accident of Gio/Emma, it seem like Gio was coming in for Trina and they did have chemistry over time, but now...I would say the same.
